Biografía:
XTC fue banda de rock, pop y new wave, nacida a partir del movimiento punk de finales de los años 70, originaria de la ciudad de Swindon, Inglaterra.
Se mantuvo activa entre 1977 y 2005, caracterizándose por una permanente evolución, desde sus inicios "cuasi punk" hasta sus últimos trabajos caracterizados por los soberbios arreglos instrumentales y vocales, y sus notables letras.
Nunca disfrutó de grandes éxitos comerciales, pese a que tuvo algunos reconocimientos en los rankings del Reino Unido y Canadá
